Chapter 1430: 1431The people who will test them are here

On the not-so-wide road, there are a lot of inexplicable boxes and equipment on the turret of a Type 64 main battle tank. These equipment provide this tank with powerful observation and aiming capabilities, and at the same time increase the cost of this tank.

Tang's tanks are expensive, but they are powerful. In such a relatively peaceful scene, the tank was moving slowly forward little by little.

  It moved very carefully, and the tracks ran over the soil that was not too soft. In April, the north had already passed the muddy period, and the soil in the distant farmland exuded a fragrant smell.

The turret of this Type 64 tank pointed at an abandoned village in the distance, which was now burning with flames, and the billowing smoke could not cover a huge city further away.

“Company Commander, we are here.” The commander stuck his head out, looked at the city in the distance, and said to the commander beside him. They saw it, saw the city marked on the map: Wuyang.

"Yes, here we are...the war is about to end." Liu Guozhu grabbed his high-band radio and loudly issued an order to the troops behind him: "We have seen the five suns, we have seen the five suns ! All vehicles set up defensive positions on the roadside, pay attention to the reconnaissance! Vehicle No. 4, be on the alert!"

Behind him, another Type 64 main battle tank turned its front and drove towards the roadbed. Another tank marked No. 114 chose a relatively hidden pothole and hid its body in it.

The Tang Army armored vehicles following the tanks also dropped their infantry behind a high ground on the roadside. Everyone curiously climbed to the top of the hill to look around, hoping to see Wuyang City in the distance.

This city is of great significance to them. As long as they enter there, it seems that the war will end immediately.

"Hoo! Hoo!" Two jet fighter jets passed over the heads of the Tang army. They were the J-7 fighter jets responsible for covering the advancing troops. They had slender air-to-air missiles hanging under their wings, looking murderous.

“The advance is so fast that, except for fighter jets, almost all other units cannot keep up.” Liu Guozhu complained. He was now used to following other units to pick up the slack.

Before, he would occasionally feel aggrieved, feeling that his abilities could not be used. His tanks had not been able to hunt down enemy tanks for a long time. Not to mention tanks, even targets such as armored vehicles and artillery are rarely seen anymore.

 But as the war progressed, this idea gradually faded away. There is no way. When someone takes credit from you, you may find the other person annoying, but when everyone takes credit from you... you can only examine yourself to see if there is really something wrong with you.

The construction speed of the Tang Army's field airports could not keep up with the advancing speed of the troops. The thunder and lightning attack aircraft that killed all sides in the early days of the war, the famous A-10 attack aircraft, now rarely appear over the front line.

There is no way. There are too few airports that can take off and land them. Now there is only one airport that can take off these aircraft, but that airport has been occupied by A-6 and the more important J-7 fighter jets.

 In addition to the A-10 attack aircraft being left behind, the Tang Army's armed helicopter units were gradually unable to keep up with the team. This is also caused by advancing too fast. There is actually only one solution, and that is to wait.

Because the Tang Army's advance was fast enough, no wreckage of destroyed cars could even be seen on the road in front of them. Because the air force really can't spare the power to attack those low-value targets scattered outside Wuyang City.

"The self-propelled artillery units behind are deploying. It is estimated that they will be shocked soon." The battalion commander's voice came from the earphones: "Our work is almost over, and it will be an interlude at most.His meaning is very simple. The armored troops will most likely not be dispatched to the city, so the most they can do is bypass Wuyang and surround the city.

This goal is very simple. Ever since the Guangmian Qin Army opened the city and surrendered, the Tang Army had encountered almost no decent resistance along the way.

Most of the city lords and Qin soldiers guarding the city chose to surrender. Even those who were unwilling to surrender were retreating towards Wuyang and had no intention of staying to stop the Tang army.

Even because they lacked preparations for retreat and ran too hastily, these Qin troops did not even destroy bridges and roads, leaving everything to the Tang army behind them...

With almost no resistance, the Tang army had advanced to the vicinity of Wuyang. Even the surrounding small cities that originally guarded Wuyang lost their original role and became transportation nodes in the Tang army's encirclement.

 In short, the Qin army was completely confused. They had forgotten too many things, and they barely managed to gain a foothold until they reached the foot of Wuyang City.

 But...it's already Wuyang here.

Looking at the vague outline of the buildings in Wuyang from a distance, Liu Guozhu jumped off his tank. The armored troops had been advancing continuously for more than a week. They needed to rest and reorganize their equipment.

"The news from the reconnaissance company is that some trenches were discovered outside Wuyang City, and they were attacked by the Qin army." The gunner, with half of his body exposed on the turret of the tank, shouted to Liu Guozhu under the vehicle. .

"Small force! There were no casualties. About a platoon of infantry from the Qin Army was repelled by the reconnaissance company." Seeing Liu Guozhu looking over, the gunner added.

 It is a very common event for the troops of both sides to have some contact in local areas. This shows that the Qin army did not abandon Wuyang, but was preparing to fight the Tang army here.

In the distant wilderness, the Tang Army's 109 self-propelled howitzers were lined up. These artillery pieces, which could follow the Tang Army's armored forces, raised their barrels one by one, ready to launch bombardments against Wuyang at any time.

Those thick barrels can project ammunition 10 kilometers away. Obviously, this place is less than 10 kilometers away from Wuyang.

As far as the eyes can see, the five suns are as quiet as a dead giant beast. The Qin army did not seem to notice the arrival of the Tang army at all, and it has not made any reaction until now.

However, it is obvious that the Qin State already knew the news of the Tang army's approach, because their troops would soon send the news back. No matter what, the Qin army must be prepared, because the person who will test them has already arrived.
